Consumers Unaware of Talcum Powder Ovarian Cancer Risk

The baby powder ovarian cancer link was detected as early as the 1970s, yet talc remains unregulated in the United States and baby powder manufacturer Johnson & Johnson continues to profit off talc-based hygiene products. Studies show that regular talcum powder use for genital hygiene puts women at an increased risk of developing ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer is a deadly disease that took an estimated 14,000 lives in the United States during 2013. One expert on baby powder ovarian cancer, the Harvard epidemiologist Dr. Daniel Cramer, estimates that 10,000 women contract ovarian cancer each year from using talcum powder.Baby powder ovarian cancer lawsuits assert that the pharmaceutical giant neglected to warn consumers of dangers associated with regular use of talc-based products such as Johnson's Baby Powder and Shower to Shower.

During 2013, the first baby powder cancer lawsuit was won against Johnson & Johnson. The jury in a South Dakota federal court found that talcum powder use caused a woman to develop ovarian cancer. During the course of the trial, an attorney representing Johnson & Johnson stated the company had been aware of the research showing a talcum powder ovarian cancer link for some time but did not believe the link to have been proven or the danger adequate to require a warning to consumers. Subsequent talcum powder cancer lawsuits confirmed the link between talc and ovarian cancer in 2016, awarding plaintiffs $55 and $72 million, respectively.

Why File a Baby Powder Cancer Lawsuit?

Baby powder cancer lawsuits are one among many types of product liability suits against Johnson & Johnson at this time. The pharmaceutical giant has announced an alarming string of product recalls and warnings in recent months and years. A wide variety of Tylenol products were recalled in 2012 and 2013, and dosage amounts and warnings labels were adjusted to account for Tylenol liver damage problems. DePuy hip replacement parts were recalled and a record settlement was reached in 2013 after tens of thousands of metal parts failed. Yet Johnson & Johnson reported more than $67 billion in earnings during 2012, and profit margins have been steadily on the rise since. It is a sad reality that sometimes only the threat of litigation and major settlements motivates a company to become a better corporate citizen
